There's more to Teavolve in Harbor East than just tea. Sure, you can get it by the cup or by the pot, both hot or iced. We counted 55 varieties of loose leaf tea on the menu including such exotic choices as Himalayan green organic tea, passion fruit tea, lemongrass oolong, rooibos chai, caramel toffee and something called Yunnan congou special, which is a black tea that sounded interesting. We didn't order it, though, because we couldn't pronounce its name. There's also coffee, sparkling green tea (a sort of tea substitute for soda), fruit smoothies and bubble teas. Then there's the bar with bottled beers, wines by the glass and a variety of tea-infused cocktails. With so many choices, we spent a good 15 minutes debating what we were going to drink. And then there was food. Teavolve has a full menu of breakfast items, salads, sandwiches and munchies. This was going to be tough night of decision-making.
